Raggedy Ann Board Game

Here is a game I had when I was a kid... Raggedy Ann Board Game. It was made by Milton Bradley in 1974. The object of the game was to be the first to complete the Raggedy Ann puzzle.

Raggedy Ann & Holly Hobbie Colorforms


Colorforms, invented by Harry Kislevitz, were paper-thin, die-cut vinyl sheet images and shapes that could be applied to a slick cardboard background board. The images stuck to the background via static cling and could be repositioned to create new scenes. The original box sets began appearing in the 1950s and featured bright shapes and "modern" basic designs, expanding into cartoon character sets.

The Colorforms I had as a child were Raggedy Ann and Holly Hobbie!

Raggedy Ann and Andy Talking Alarm Clock

Raggedy Ann and Andy Talking Alarm Clock was made by Janex in 1974.

Raggedy Ann wakes you saying:
"Andy, Andy, please get up. It's time to call our friends. Ok, Ann, I'm awake, let's shout it once again. We were sent to wake you, so here we are to say, 'Please get up, brush your teeth and start your Happy Day.'"

I had this clock when I was a child. My mom had decorated my room in a Raggedy Ann theme. I also had a set of 4-5 Raggedy Ann dolls that varied in sizes. I also received a Raggedy Ann Colorforms set. I will write more about them later!
